Women might not be able to resist Shadrack McGill (or at
least not maybe/probably-fictional ones on Facebook), but let's do the best we
can, at least until we're through all the important stuff that happened yesterday.

Birmingham City Councilwoman Lashunda Scales turned herself in around 10 a.m. Tuesday, June 4, 2013, and was released shortly afterward, officials at the Jefferson County Jail confirmed to AL.com/The Birmingham News. Scales turned herself in on ethics violation charges. (Photo from Jefferson County Jail)

Altogether, Scales faces six counts alleging that she used
her office to support her private business interests and that she intimidated
voters during a Birmingham bond referendum last year.

Through an attorney, Scales denied the charges. If convicted
of a felony, she would be removed from office.

OK, now to Shadrack

First your wife puts up a post on your Facebook page, and
then, next thing you know, you're on Good Morning America.

What? That's never happened to you?

In the life of Alabama State Sen. Shadrack McGill, that's
business as usual.

On Monday,
Heather McGill told the world that women (maybe fake ones) should quit
soliciting her husband on Facebook.

Then
on Tuesday, McGill says that during the last campaign strippers showed up
at his business and at his home in the middle of the night. (Before you roll
your eyes, do remember that he was running against then-Sen. Lowell Barron.)

Then
on Wednesday, both McGills appeared on Good Morning America to talk about
the whole thing.
